The long eagle struck the sky, starting from the coast of Lingzhou, passing over hills, mountains, towns and villages. Before landing in the arms of its master, it first screamed excitedly because of the fishy smell that filled the air.
Its owner was one of several falconers that Ji Xiahe specially found. The falconer took off the small bamboo tube and handed it over to his apprentice intact. The apprentice immediately turned around and left the small courtyard, driving his horse to the front line.
The sixty-mile stretch at the junction of Changyang and Junzhou can be called the front line. A large-scale battle had just ended before the main army withdrew to Baiguang Township.
The young apprentice went straight to the general's camp. He went smoothly without any obstruction, not even a notification was needed. The horse stopped directly in front of the general's tent.
The young apprentice dismounted and rushed straight in: "General, there is a letter from Lingzhou!"
The men who were talking in the camp stopped. Ye Zheng was so happy that he immediately walked over, took the small bamboo tube and quickly came back and handed it to Shen Lie: "Master, this is from Wu Shaoning."
Shen Lie glanced briefly, then opened the wooden box on the side and gently put the small bamboo tube inside.
The new counselors watched him close the wooden box, and they were all curious.
The tallest counselor named Hui Jin asked: "General, the letter from Lingzhou must be related to Miss Ali. Why don't you read it?"
Shen Lie said: "Read it after you're done."
Ye Zheng said with a smile: "This is Miss A Li's letter. As long as it is not too urgent, the young master likes to read it when he is alone, quiet and comfortable!"
Everyone chuckled, and Hui Jin said: "That's it."
Several counselors secretly noted this in their minds, and at the same time glanced at Ye Zheng gratefully.
As for the private affairs of a person like Shen Lie, who had a cold and distant temperament and didn't like to talk, they, the newcomers, didn't dare to ask too many questions, and they didn't even dare to make insinuations.
Now, Ye Zheng was making it clear to them that Miss Ali's status in the general's heart was far more important than the rumors said.
The more they know, the better they will know which aspects require lightning protection and which aspects require diligence.
Looking back to the front of the march, next to the map, densely packed small bamboo sticks were inserted into the sand dunes.
Shen Lie lowered his eyes and gradually moved his gaze towards the northwest.
Hui Jin followed his line of sight and saw that where he was looking was Jinghe and Guide.
Hui Jin thought of some things he had heard before and said, "General, you went to Lingde a few months ago?"
Shen Lie said: "Well, I went to chase Qian Fengrong, but it turned out that person was not Qian Fengrong."
"It is said that Xie Zhong is really there, and the Zhongxin Army was completely destroyed by Cao Chunshan's Pingpi soldiers."
Ye Zheng smiled: "Mr. Hui, since we are all our own people, let me tell you straight away. In fact, Xie Zhong's army was completely wiped out, and we are the real heroes."
He told the whole story of those days, and finally said: "Xie Zhong should still be alive now. If his body is discovered, Jin Hongkang will definitely make a fuss."
Hui Jin and other counselors were stunned when they heard this. After a long while, Hui Jin said: "It sounds like Xie Zhong is really a ruthless person. Very few people have such courage to sacrifice their troops and horses. That is no longer just trying to survive. That’s called losing all limbs.”
As he said that, Hui Jin looked at Shen Lie: "General, if there is news about Qian Fengrong, will you still pursue him and kill him?"
Shen Lie said in a deep voice: "Yes, I promised Ah Li."
Ye Zhengdao: "Moreover, the news about Qian Fengrong should be coming soon. Liang Jun was sent to Songzhou by the young master just after he arrived in Hejing."
Hui Jin said happily: "This is very good. If I can kill Qian Fengrong, I will be doing harm to the people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier came in from outside: "Report! General, Chief Mo of Baiguang Township wants to see you!"
Some people couldn't help but mutter: "Why is it him again..."
Ye Zheng also whispered: "I came here seven or eight times a day, and I still can't let anyone take a breath."
Shen Lie said to the soldier: "Let him wait, I will go later."
"Yes!" the soldier responded and left.
"Young master, you shouldn't have given us a good attitude in the first place," Ye Zheng said. "It would have been better if our attitude had been worse. Mayor Mo, if he had given us some sunshine, he would have been brilliant."
Shen Lie retracted his gaze and looked back at the map, and said calmly: "Ah Li hopes that they will become hateful and cruel, so that they can carry a knife and a gun by themselves in the future, so in addition to establishing prestige, I am here to add fuel to the fire."
Hui Jin and several counselors looked at each other. Hui Jin looked away and couldn't help but secretly sigh, it turned out to be Miss Ali again.
Shen Lie is famous throughout the world for his bravery and has never had a single defeat. Moreover, due to the incident of Zuilu cutting off the fingers of several of his uncles in the street, his reputation has been mixed with praise and criticism. But one thing is generally recognized. This person is definitely not easy to mess with, and he is definitely not humane.
When Hui Jin and others first met him, their feeling of being untouchable was infinitely amplified, not least because of his face.
Viewed from side to side, this face is unparalleled in beauty and elegance. It is both arrogant and cold, yet arrogant and flamboyant. At first glance, it matches the legendary God of War. Doesn't match.
I have to write it down in a small notebook. The first important thing is to never offend Miss Ali.

The setting sun gradually faded away, and the lights of the inn came on one by one.
Ling Yang came in with the food, walked around the Ginzuo screen where the drunken words were flowing, and put the food on the desk.
Nie Huimo was writing. He raised his eyelids and glanced at the food he had put down. He looked away without stopping the pen in his hand.
Ling Yang said: "I just received a message that the batch of tributes sent by Zhuang Mengyao to the Nangong family has arrived safely in Baishuihe Town."
Nie Huimo said lightly "Yes" and said: "It'll be good when we get there."
"The news from Hejing has also arrived, saying that Miss Ali has gone to Lingzhou."
Nie Huimo frowned slightly, raised his head and said, "She went to Lingzhou?"
"Um."
Nie Huimo was puzzled: "Compared to Lingzhou, the war in Baiguang Township is more important. Why is she going to Lingzhou now?"
"And she traveled alone, with only one guard and a coachman."
Nie Huimo raised his thick eyebrows lightly: "Shen Lie didn't come with you?"
Ling Yang shook his head: "No."
Nie Huimo smiled softly: "It seems that Shen Lie went to Baiguang Township."
"The general knows things well. He did go to Baiguang Township."
"He is quite attentive," Nie Huimo's smile turned sarcastic, "I have to take credit in front of her for everything."
"That's right." Ling Yang said.
"That's it," Nie Huimo raised his eyes to look at him, "I want to fight, but she won't give me a chance."
"..."
After a pause, Ling Yang said: "General, do you think Miss Ah Li and that Shen Lie will become a couple?"
Nie Huimo's face turned cold and he said lightly: "I don't know."
"Then, what if it really happens..."
Nie Huimo frowned, feeling irritable in his heart. After a while of silence, he said: "It will be done, just grab it."
"This is not easy to snatch. Miss Ah Li is not an ordinary girl, unless, unless you can bring down this world."
"Conquer the world?" Nie Huimo lowered his head and looked at the paper in front of him. He had a vague feeling that if he could conquer the world, would she do it?
Just her temper and character.
Nie Huimo said in a low voice: "Yes, I can beat him down."
